Brief Update

[worldoflucky]

I haven't posted in awhile so I thought I would give a brief update:

• Sickness is completely gone, feeling pretty good.
• Went to my mental health evaluation (for anxiety), things went well and I will probably post about that later.
• Finishing up the school district I am auditing (thank god), next week I go to Granite Falls SD.
• Going to replace my current coffee use with tea use (wont decrease how much I drink, maybe even increase a bit).
• This weekend is our last full group in house Shadowrun game. talkswithwind and ducened are moving to DC. Should be an interesting game.
• My short term goal is increase my sleep schedule, I think I am going to move my workout (even if it reduces it a bit) to later in the day. When I was working out hard I kept getting up earlier and earlier to do it before work (getting up at 4am), even if I went to bed late (11 or midnight). I don't think that was healthy.
• Going to go back to 3 days a week at gym and the rest of the days I am going to try and use the exercise bike (start at short times again and work my way up).
• Oh, and bad news, found out I am probably taking a 3% paycut in June. This in itself is not the worst, but I already make 30-40k less a year then someone at my old CPA firm with same experience. I probably will weather it out at least for two more years until I vest, then maybe I will go work for the Department of Defense as a Contractor Auditor.
• Life with my wife is going great.
• I need to get back to CPA studying, will start that in a week or so.
• About half way saved up for my iPad.... taking forever.

There is more, but its lengthy and I noticed its time to go to work. I will post more later.

Sounds good to me! Yeah, sleep is so important... I was behind. Slept about 9.5 hours last night and am still exhausted. I just never seem to get caught up. And when you're exercising hard, too, your body needs even more rest!

Tea is such great stuff. I drink pots of Japanese green tea every day. What kind will you be drinking? For a treat, Earl Grey with some kind of cream (I like almond milk) and a little sugar (or honey or something--or without sweetener) is really yummy.

SD! That's in my area. Well, not really, but you know, kinda. Weather still isn't ideal here. SD is a beautiful, sacred place that the white man sat his big butt upon (c.f. Mt. Rushmore).

1. I definitely agree more rest is good.

2. I normally drink chai or Assam.

3. Ouch, I misspoke, I am going to Granite Falls School District :) in Washington State.
